I don't get that one. It should be fraud at the very least.
But no one cares, because she's a woman.
The owners of nightclubs and bars want pretty women to attract more people (aka the guys) into their bar. They don't get free drinks unless someone buys them drinks. (Don't even try to argue that is privilege, that is some guy trying to get laid.)
The whole "Buying women drinks" is part of the social construct that caters to women. Nice try.
96% of sex offenders are male. Sorry, but females are gonna be less threatening to children.
You act like males don't massively underreport sexual abuse. The numbers are skewed for many reasons.
Women were not originally allowed in university and were discouraged from getting an education. Doesn't it make sense to encourage it now? Native people go to university for free, but that isn't a privilege because the Europeans came over and took their land and ruined their way of life.
Yes, because things people did 100 or 200 years ago whom we had no contact with means that we are responsible for their actions, right? Justifying sexism because of sexism in the past just flips the coin on who's on top. That's all. You are part of the problem.
Video games? (And yes, I get that now Riot is creating more interesting female characters, but one mention of boob-plate from a girl...)
Anita Sarkeesean? Any other dumbass woman who claims to be an expert about video game violence towards women, despite having literally no idea what they are talking about and just cherry picking and misleading game related information to intentionally obscure how the game is played? This is probably the worst point you've made thus far.
This entire point is sexist. Why do we contribute less?
Math, maybe? More likely to be considered for early retirement, women live longer, so they have more time to take on social security and retire earlier so they contribute less. They are also more likely to stop working before they officially retire.
Filed under anatomy, not privilege.
Nice try, except that many health programs and access to special care for elderly are much more accessible to women.
That might be a point if it were true (not saying it isn't, but I don't have any information on that subject).
"I don't like your point, but it's probably wrong because I say so."
Women are stereotyped as the stay at home mom and it isn't a good thing.
Oh no, having to sit at home and watch TV and work a grand total of 2 hours a day (Cooking all meals, minor cleaning) on a typical day is soo strenuous. Sure, there's kids, but after a certain age (which gets lower) they are more easily entertained by technology. Kids use fucking tablets now.
So you think having control over one's own body is female privilege? That is a basic human right.
Except that the child you are bearing isn't just your owns. It's also the fathers, whose rights you callously disregard when you consider an abortion.
Probably because in general, they do not earn as much as men.
Which is because of decisions women make. Not because they are paid less. Does not justify the disgusting alimony cases I've seen. It's an ancient and broken system and should be abolished. Women are able to work in this day in age. Child support more than covers the basic needs of a child.
Not a privilege. They put in a lot of hard work to get equal rights. I would argue that feminism (while it means that everybody should be treated the same, it does have an emphasis on women) does not seem to be taken seriously. There have been enough "men only" spaces. If men are usually the perpetrators of violent or sexual crimes against women, does this not make sense?
Men only spaces? Are you drunk? Name one place I can go that isn't a bathroom that a woman can't. THERE ARE NONE. Feminism is considered a joke because all it does is pander to attention seeking cunts. The reason people don't like feminists isn't because they are feminists, it's because they act like total bitches and are terrible human beings. Do I really need to reference videos of feminists acting like this? And they're the "middle ground" ones too. They didn't even mention killing all men or called them pigs.
And don't even get me started on con women like Quinn or Anita.
Men blame women's behaviour on hormones, I'm not sure what you want from us.
If you act ridiculous in a social or private environment, you can get a free pass by blaming it hormones. Sure we can still blame you, but it's really frowned upon and that frowning is reinforced throughout the social spectrum. Men are told to shut up and go away during that time of the month women have, just to ignore them and not call them out on their shit.
I did not personally say that, but there are not as many as you seem to think.
Really? Not as many as we seem to think? Every presentation or speech or video about feminism I've seen made by feminists don't mention the superior female rights they have. Not a single fucking one.
You say yourself that everyone has privilege. Most of the points here are not privilege either.
"You said that you have privilege. I'm going to disagree with you but still use it as a point to say that we have equal privileges. Except women have less."
Are men not consistently represented in a positive manner? Or do you mean that the only roll a women may fill on TV is a sexy/smart/athletic/multitasking superhuman?
More like women are often betrayed as more reasonable and intelligent where men are more often betrayed as belligerent assholes.
Probably because gender discrimination against women has a long history, whereas against men, it is fairly recent. It's also a reason why men need feminism.
No, men have been discriminated against just as much as women have. Forced to do dangerous jobs, work in the fields, etc, all of the ultimate award of having the privilege of being able to ASK for a woman's hand in marriage. Which is totally unreasonable until he already has a house, job, and social reputation. You sound like you need to do some actual education on equal rights. Not read feminist propaganda.
Yes. Probably because women are not seen as a threat.
Yet if they are and a man defends himself, he's more likely to be assaulted by bystanders.
Women have less stringent standards in fields of law and military.
It is a little. But it's never the less true. Despite being at very similar fitness levels (The physical differences between men and women are only really pronounced at the very high and very low end of the spectrums, those who do religiously and those who don't work out at all.) women have less stringent physical requirements and less requirements of attire.
So can men. There are people who feel sympathy for Darren Wilson, even though he executed an unarmed Mike Brown. Also, as above, women are generally not seen as a threat.
Except how many men can have a judge rule that a percentage of their divorcee's income is now forever devoted to them? How is that fair in the slightest? Because you spent a few years with her and married her, found out she's not who you thought she was, and now she is entitled to a portion of your income and to be forever taken care of by you, for no other reason that she is a women. Not even going to touch the Mike Brown fantasy.
?
I think he's talking about small but very dedicated fan bases being criticized because they're male. IE, bronies.
?
I think he's stating that statement that toes the party line (Feminism, of course) are automatically assumed accurate.
Is it socially acceptable to tell a man to suffer in silence? Also, up until fairly recently, that was what people did.
Actually, it IS socially acceptable. Women could chat in their little groups, tea parties, girls night out, whatever form it is today. Men bitching about women are condemned and judged.
This may be a point. We are more aware that it happens to women.
It's also backed by both society and law. Men are disadvantaged in both, and they are ostracized if they complain.
That seems more like a problem with the law.
Problem with the law, or the society that made it? Women in any kind of custody, paternity, or divorce case have a very heavy bias.
Nastra, you have a couple points, but an awful lot of your argument is restating itself or is not really valid.
Says the person reinstating their points, and say that "men need feminism" when the feminist movement openly doesn't care about their rights.
